HIS FIRST CLASS WIN WAS AT MILE HIGH DRAG STRIP IN DENVER, COLORADO, WITH MANY MORE WINS AT OTHER DRAG STRIPS SUCH As INDIANAPOLIS POMONA AND OTHERS.  INCREDIBLY JAY AND HIS CAMARO HAVE WON 14 WALLYS (TROPHY NAMED AFTER WALLY PARKS, FOUNDER OF THE NHRA). THAT'S PRETTY AMAZING. THIS CAR RAN THE 1/4 MILE IN A TIME OF 10.20 SECONDS, WITH A TOP SPEED OF 130 MILES AN HOUR.

 JAY RETIRED FROM RACING IN 2018 AND BEGAN A FULL FRAME OFF RESTORATION. AFTER FINISHING THE RESTORATION. THE CAMARO LOOKED VERY CLOSE TO THE CAR HE BOUGHT IN 1972.  JAY HAS BEEN IN CAL RODS FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AND HE ENJOYS THE MANY ACTIVITIES WE OFFER. CHECK THIS CAR OUT WHEN YOU GET A CHANCE; IT HAS A VERY INTERESTING HISTORY.
